SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 395,486, dated January1, 1.889.

Application filed March 29, 1888. Serial No, 268,789, (No model.)

T0 all whom, it may cm1/cern.-

Be it known that l, GEORGE F. CraLQUITT, of Purcell, in the county ofPontotos and Indian Territory, have'invented a new and ImprovedTobacco-Pipe, of which the following is a full, clear, and exactdescription.

The object of the invention is to provide a new and improvedtobacco-smoking pipe, which prevents the nicotine and other unhealthysubstances from entering` the smokers system.

The invention consists of a pipe provided with a storage-chamber havingan opening` leading into the bowl and with a valve for closing saidopening.

The invention also consists et certa-in parts and details andcombinations of the same, as

will be fully described hereinafter and then pointed out in the claims.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, to `ming a part ofthis specification, in which similar letters of reference indicatecorresponding parts in all the gures.

Figure l is a rear elevation of the improvement. Fig. 2 is a sectionalside elevation ot' the same on the line .fc of- Fig. l. Fig. 3 is a planview of the lower part of the barrel, and a is a side elevation of thepipe-stem.

The improved pipe A is provided with a barrel, B, which is for thestorage oit the tobacco, and is made of two parts, C and D, fitted oneon the other by a ring, E, secured to the lower half, C, of the barrelB. In the upper half of the barrel Ai3 is formed an opening, D', coveredon the outside by a door, F, and serving for the introduction ot' thetobacco inte the barrel B. In the lirottom C otl the lower part, C, oi'the barrel B is formed an opening, C2, adapted to be closed b5T a gate,G, passing through the barrel B, and provided on its outer end with anupwardly-extending spring-bar, G', fastened at its upper end to theoutside of the said vbarrel C. The gate .G is also provided on itsoutside with one,

two, or more downwardly-extending iianges, i2, which serve as a cnvenient hold ljor the operator to move said gate inward or outward overthe said opening The opening Cv2 connects when the gate G isopened witha combristicii-chamber, H, provided with a perforated bottom, H', andopen at the top. The receptacle ll is also provided on its upper andlower ends with outwardlyextending flanges, which lit snugly into therecess I', formed in the extension I, secured to the lower end of thepart C et the barrel B. In the extension l are formed a number ofapertures, l2, which lead into the recess j or space formed around therim ot' the coinbustion-receptacie ll, between its top and bottom lianges, before mentioned, so that air :from the outside can pass into andaround the said rim of the receptacle il, thus keeping the latter cool.On the lower end oi' the extension I is hinged a bottom cover, J,provided on its inside with a perforated partition, J which extends towithin a short distance of the bottom H of the combustion receptaclell'. Said bottom cover, J, lis also provided with a perforated bottom,J2, and in the side of the cover J is formed an opening, J1", whichpermits the entrance oi a lighted match, so as to ignite the tobaccoheld in the combustionchamber H.

To the under side of the bottom part C of the barrel B is secured aplate, l, provided with a central opening, K, which registers with acentral aperture in the plug N, resting on the said plate K, and formedat its upper end into a cone, as is plainly shown in Fig. 2. On the saidplug N screws a tube, L, held centrally in the bottom C of the part C ofthe barrel B and extending through the latter into the top ot the part Dof the barrel B. In this tube L is held the pipe-stein O, provided atits lower en d with a conical, concavity, O', held a short distanceabove the upper cone end of the plug N. On the stem O is cut a spiralgroove, O2, which commences at the bottom and extends to within a shortdistance of the upper end, and then continues into an inwardly andupwardly extending aperture, O3, which leads to a central aperture, O4,formed in the upper part of the stem O and opening at the top into .themouth-piece P, ot and desired shape and length, and screwing on theupper end ot" the said pipe-stem O. rlhe latter is cone-shaped at itstop, and a similar form is given to the lower part of the inside of themou th -piece P, as is plainly shown in Fig. 2.

The barrel B is lfilled with tobacco by open- IOO ing the door F andintroducing` the tobacco through the opening D', so that it can bepacked around the central tube, L. Now, when the operator desires tosmoke he holds the gate G outward, so that the tobacco in the barrel Bi'alls through the opening C2 into the combustion-chamber ll, and when adesired quantity is in the latter the operator removes his fingers fromthe gate G, whereby the spring-bar G again :forces the gate G inward andover the opening C2, so that the combustion-receptacle ll and thetobacco in the barrel B are completely separated. The smoker thenintroduces an ignited match through the aperture J 3 in the bottomcover, J, and draws in the usual manner on the mouth-piece l. The smokearising' from drawing, as above described, passes through the opening Kin the plate K to the central opening' in the plug N, and from thelatter into the conical recess O', and then into the spiral groove O2 onthe pipe-stein O. The smoke passes along the spiral groove O2, and isfinally drawn into the apertures O3 and O4 and .into the upper part ofthe pipe-stem O, and then passes into the mouth-piece P. Now, it will beseen that the smoke travels a long distance around the spiral groove O2before it reaches the smokers mouth. It will further be seen thatnicotine and other poisonous substances arising from the tobacco in thesmoke are collected on the conical end oit' the plug N, and the salivafrom the smokers mouth is collected at the conical end ot' thepipe-stein O, so that the usual unhealthy results ot smoking tobacco areavoided.

It will further be seen that the eonilnistionreceptacle H can easily beremoved from the extension l by opening the bottom cover, J.

Having thus 'fully described my invention, l claim as new and desire tosecure by Letters Patentl. A tobacco-pipe provided with a storagechamberhaving an opening leading into the bowl thereof and with a valve Atorclosing the said opening, substantially as described.
